' - The time-ball may be used to-day for rating chronometers. A chronometer true ou Greenwich time would show 12h. SOmin. when the ball drops. Any, ditL'reilce is error,' pins or minus, of the chronomete’r. “The barque Australind, Captain Oliver, arrived in harbor yesterday morning from Newcastle, after a good run down of 11 days, and-a remarkably smalt round trip of 24 days.’ She left Kewcastla on the 28th nit., and experienced moderate 1 northerly winds to Cape Farewell, which was sighted on Monday last; thence had a hard S.W. gain for about 12 hours after- - wards. ; Northerly winds prevailed throughout the Strait, and brought her off the Heads, and she came into port as above stated. - ' The barquentine Estelle, with a cargo of colonial produce, arrived in port from Dunedin at 8.30 a.m. yesterday. She left Dunedin on the 3rd instant, and experienced strong northerly winds to Banks Peninsula, when a shift to the, S.E. took;place, blowing hard,' with thisk weather. This weather lasted till abreast of Kaikonra, When it again went round to the northward, blowing heavily, which continued nearly the whole way to the Heads. The Estelle will on discharge of her cargo here go on to Nelson, ; where she loads lor Dunedin. The schooner Josephine, with a full cargo of produce, arrived here from Lyttelton yesterday, having left there on Monday last. 1 The Malay, barque, came up from Lyttelton yesterday morning. The Napier will leave this morning for Blenheim. The steamer Taupo, from the North, arrived here at 10,30 a.m. yesterday. She left the Manukau on Sunday, and was off Taranaki next morning; but in consequence of heavy weather had to proceed to Nelson without communicating with the shore. Left Nelson at 6.30 p.m. on Tuesday, and Picton at 5 a.m. yesterday. Owing to thick weather had to go round Steveus Island. Captain Andrew took the Taupo South last evening, as Captain Carey has to stay behind to give evidence in the Eli Whitney case. ■ The Taupo’s mate, engineer, and purser also stayed behind. A preliminary inquiry was held at the Customs yesterday as to the causa of the collision between the schooner • Herald and p.s. Luna. The esse may perhaps come into the Eesident.Magistrate’s Court. S' THE WRECK OF THE QUEEN BEE. : * Our telegrams elsewhere mention, the fact that the - ship Queen Bee has been wrecked on Cape Farewell Spit at midnight on Monday last. The Queen Bee was on a voyage from London to Nelson, with a full general cargo, and commenced her voyage on the 24th April last. She was under charter to Messrs, Shaw, SaviU, and Co., and was a wooden ship of 726 tons. She has made several voyages to this port, and was here in 1874. The.following is tho-list of passengers, as taken from Home papers:—Saloon : Mrs. J. Gibbs, Mary Gibbs, Richard Gibbs,; Louisa Gibbs, Frederick Gibbs, Sydney Gibbs, Ellen J Gibbs, John H. Gibbs, Henry E. Gibbs, Lucy P.. Gibbs, C. J. Beckett, Ernest Catt, W. -A, Whyte, H. Hartle, Dr. Maunsell, Muriel Maunsell, Mary Maunsell, Eily Mauuseli, Eva C. Foaberry. Emma Fosberry. and H, H.

N' * ARRIVAL OF THE GLENLYON. 1 A The ship which arrived; off the. Heads bn Tuesday night proved, as was anticipated, to be the Glenlyon, from London, 98 days out. She tacked about all night with a hflavy N.W. wind, and at daylight ■ headefl for the port, the wind in the meantime having changed into the S.E. When abreast of Barrett’s Reef at 8 a.m. it fell calm, and subsequently backed into K. \V. again. The vessel being thus placed it a precarious condition, she had to be brought to an anchorage, but had not long done so when the wind again took into the S.E., and blew very hard. Before the anchor could be hove up again the vessel was dipping bows under the very heavy sea which came up, and-the only resource left was to slip the anchor and forty fathoms of cable, which was 'done/ and she arrived in port at 10 a.m. The Glenlyon is under charter to the N.Z S. Company, and has a full cargo,. consisting of about 1250 tons,, and is very deeply laden. She commenced her voyage bn the 3rd May, - ami made a good tun down the Channel, clearing it in 24 hours, with a moderate N.E, breeze, which she carried with her for about 200 miles off the land, and then was headed with hard S.W. gales across the Bay of Biscay. On the 18th May, got the N.E. trades, which were not of much account, and which lasted for 10 days. On the 3rd June she crossed the Equator, and after a spell of variable winds got the S.E. trades in 16deg. north, which proved to be strong, and held till 17th June. After, disposing of a few days’ variable « eatlier got the first of the westerly winds, and crossed the meridian of Greenwich on the 23rd June, and rounded the Cape on June 28th. The westerlies were very strong And" unsettled, shifting frequently round from N.W, to S.W. On the 25th July ex-, perienced a heavy gale, and was pooped by a heavy sea, washing the man away from the wheel, who fortunately was not Injured, and also carrying away the binnacle and stand. The westerlies carried her to the meridian of Tasmania; and here the wind hauled into, the N. and N.E, ■ blowing' very hard at times. On Monday last made her landfall at; Rock’s Point, and same day had a heavy S.W. gale, which was followed by a heavy nor’-wester, which brought her down off Ike Heads on Tuesday night. She arrived here as : above stated.. , ,
